Still seeking a striker, it seems always more difficult for Juventus to obtain Arsenal 28 year old Robin Van Persie, as, according to the English medias, Manchester United have already made an offer to the Gunners for the Holland national. The amount offered by the Red Devils seems still far from the one required by the Londoner club for the player, but United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has declared to be sure that in the next season he will train the Dutchman. On the contrary, although yesterday Fiorentina honorary president Andrea Della Valle has declared that their starlet Stevan Jovetic is not for sale, the bianconeri are still keen on the 22 year old: according to the Corriere dello Sport, the Serie A champs could offer to the viola 29 year old striker Fabio Quagliarella plus cash, while Tuttosport substains that Juve could use the amount obtained by selling to AC Milan 27 year old Alessandro Matri to swoop on the Montenegro national or on Inter Milan 27 year old Giampaolo Pazzini. Moreover, according to Sky Sport 24, the bianconeri are still trying to interfere in the negotiation between Genoa, Siena and AS Rome for the transfer to the capital's club of 21 year old Mattia Destro. Regarding the possible departures, Lazio, Benfica, Stuttgart, Dynamo Kiiv and Valencia are keen on 26 year old left back Reto Ziegler, while the agent of 27 year old winger Milos Krasic has revealed that for the moment there are no interesting offers for his client.

After obtaining from Bologna 30 year old Gaby Mudingayi, Inter Milan want to sign another midfielder, and. after loosing their chance for Corinthians 23 year old Paulinho, they are keen on FC Porto 25 year old Fernando, whose evaluation remains in any case too high. Another option could still be 33 year old Anatoliy Tymoschuk, who has announced to Kicker his intention to quit Bayern Munich. The nerazzurri are also seeking an attacking midfieldeer, and to obtain Barcelona 26 year old Ibrahim Afellay they will have to compete, according to El Mundo Deportivo, with both Borussia Dortmund and Schalke 04. Moreover, also Palermo president Maurizio Zamparini has excluded the possibility of a swap with Inter the Lombard club regarding Abel Hernandez and Samuele Longo.
